Kids Encyclopedia Facts

This is a comprehensive list of rolling stock of the Isle of Wight Steam Railway at Havenstreet, Isle of Wight.

Steam locomotives

Havenstreet currently boasts a surplus of ex-Wight railway network stalwarts & industrial tank engine designs. More are being restored all the time, covering for other locomotives as they themselves are taken out of service. In the near future, additional classes from the mainland may be brought in for when the railway expands its operations.

No. W11
Newport
LB&SCR A1 Class
0-6-0T
Built at Brighton Works and originally No. 40 Brighton, Newport is one of the most famous members of the class, having been chosen to take part in the Paris Exhibition of 1878. Her performance earned her a gold medal, and over two decades at Battersea were followed by a move to Wight in 1902. Ownership passed to the Southern in 1923 and she was renamed and numbered in 1930, returning to the mainland in 1947, where she was purchased by Billy Butlin in 1963 for display at his Pwllheli camp. Ownership passed to the WLS in 1976, and she was restored to running order by 1989. In 2002 she was withdrawn from service for overhaul and replacement of her boiler. This work was completed in March 2014 and on 12 March 2014, Newport passed her boiler examination and steam test. She re-entered service on Saturday 24 May 2014.

No. W24
Calbourne
LSWR O2 Class
0-4-4T
W24 was built with remaining 59 engines in the class at Nine Elms Locomotive Works, first working at Fratton and Exeter before falling into the hands of the Southern Railway, who moved her to the Island in 1925, along with 22 other 02s to replace the older locomotives employed by the railways on the Isle of Wight. When electrification came in 1967, she was retained for preservation with the IOWSR, the first of the current fleet to do so. After 25 years her restoration ended in 1992, and a second overhaul saw her in operation from 2010 until 2019. It was then withdrawn from service, undergoing another overhaul until it returned to service in 2021. SR Malachite Green Isle of Wight Steam Railway 1891 British Railways Class O2 W24 Calbourne.jpg
No. WD198 Royal Engineer Hunslet Austerity
0-6-0ST
Though she was built within the final batch of WD-ordered "Austerities", WD198 did not start her career until 1956, which included working with WD92 at Bicester. Following a period in store, she was overhauled and named Royal Engineer, and became the last of her kind in service with the Army upon withdrawal in 1991. She became part of the NAM collection and moved to the Isle of Wight, where she was overhauled and fitted with air brakes. She had a major boiler overhaul from 2015 to 2017. She is now back in service after three years. Boiler ticket expires in 2027. WD Green Isle of Wight Steam Railway 1953 Isle of Wight Steam Railway - geograph.org.uk - 834848.jpg
No. 41298 LMS Ivatt Class 2
2-6-2T
No. 41298 was built at Crewe with all but 10 engines of the same design and was first allocated to shunt stock at Bricklayers Arms, London. Leaving the site in 1953, her next work was in South West England around Devon and Barnstaple. 1967 saw her purchased for preservation at the Longmoor Military Railway, before moving to the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre in 1970 after it closed down. The decision to move the Ivatt Trust's collection to the Isle of Wight was settled and 41298 (which arrived in late 2008), is now the first of the owner's locomotives in the overhaul queue. The engine was steamed, and undertook her first moves in preservation on 20 August 2014. The locomotive hauled its first passenger train in preservation in September 2015, and made its official return to service at the start of the 2016 running season. BR Lined Black with the Late Crest.

No. 41313 LMS Ivatt Class 2
2-6-2T
No. 41313 spent the first few years of her BR-career in the south of England, replacing pre-grouping passenger tanks. Upon withdrawal from her final base at Eastleigh (71A) in 1965 she was sold to Woodham Brothers for scrap. She was purchased by the ILT in 1975, and was originally meant as a spares loco for 41298, though her condition was assessed as being good enough for restoration. The move to the Isle of Wight was made in 2006, two years before the remaining members of the Ivatt Trust's collection started arriving and she has since been in store awaiting full restoration. She moved to the East Somerset Railway for restoration in February 2015 and returned to service in June 2017. BR Lined Black with the Late Crest.

Undergoing overhaul, restoration or repairs
No. W8
Freshwater
LB&SCR A1 Class
0-6-0T
No. W8 was originally named Newington and numbered 46. She worked for both the LB&SCR and the LSWR, and moved to Wight in 1913, where she was later renamed and numbered to match the standard of naming the island's engines after towns. 1949 saw her career on the Isle end and she returned to the mainland for work on Hayling Island branches until 1963. In 1979 an agreement with the former owners saw her return to Wight for preservation and in two years she started hauling trains on the private rail network. After a boiler replacement costing £35,000, this locomotive's boiler ticket expired in November 2018 and has been dismantled for its ten-yearly overhaul.

No. W37 Invincible Hawthorn Leslie
0-4-0ST
No. W37 Invincible worked as a shunter at Woolwich Arsenal for 40 years along with several other 0-4-0STs. After an extensive period in storage, she was overhauled for a transfer to the RAE of Farnborough. Following the closure of the centre, the new owner placed her on loan to the railway from 1971 until his death in 1979, and ownership was passed to the WLS, who carry out her overhauls and repairs. She was featured in Christie's Iron Horse music video. Nearing the end of the 2009 season, she suffered a broken spring hanger and was withdrawn from service. Her overhaul started in 2017.

No. WD192
Waggoner
Hunslet Austerity
0-6-0ST
Originally WD192, she was part of the final batch of 14 engines ordered by the War Department, and worked on the Longmoor Military Railway, Hampshire, before moving to Histon in 1959, and later Bicester in 1959. From 1961 she spent several years in storage, but in 1968 was renumbered and named in recognition of her services. After a further 16 years in service, she was retired and displayed at the NAM in 1984 She was moved to the Isle of Wight in 2005. She returned to steam in 2006 and ownership was later passed on to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway. The locomotive put in a very reliable and high mileage performance during its ten-year boiler ticket, which expired in December 2015. The locomotive is undergoing a ten-yearly overhaul.

No. W2 Yarmouth LB&SCR E1 Class
0-6-0T
Yarmouth was first allocated to Brighton as LB&SCR No. 110 Burgundy. She was then based at numerous depots around the south of England, becoming Southern Railway No. B110 after the Grouping in 1923. After her retirement in 1925, she was sold to the Cannock and Rugeley Colliery Company where she was fitted with a new boiler and renumbered as No. 9. She was withdrawn from service again in 1963 when she was preserved at the Chasewater Railway until 1978 when she moved to the East Somerset Railway. After a long overhaul, she returned to steam in 1993, but firebox problems caused her to be withdrawn prematurely in 1997. After spending many years dismantled, she was cosmetically restored in 2011 and painted into inauthentic BR unlined black as No. 32110. In 2012, she was purchased by the Isle of Wight as part of a deal which saw LMS Class 2MT 2-6-0 No. 46447 move to the ESR in exchange for No. 32110. The loco arrived at Havenstreet in October 2012. In 2021 work began to take Yarmouth apart for restoration. The identity of No. W2 was previously worn by one of the E1's that worked on the line from 1932. BR Unlined Black with the Early Crest.

Ajax
Barclay
0-6-0T
Ajax was built to order by the former Sulphide Corporation of London, where she stayed for many years before moving overseas to Iran for work at the Anglo-Persian Oil Company. Several years later she was repatriated and worked at Llandarcy Refinery, until retirement in 1968. The owner moved her the Havenstreet for restoration, where she was in storage for over two decades before restoration began. The boiler passed its steam test in 2003 and within two years Ajax returned to work with air brakes fitted for passenger trains. Ajax was withdrawn from service at the beginning of 2015, following the completion of her boiler ticket. Currently, no plans for her future have been drawn up, and she is stored in the Train Story building. Lined Black Isle of Wight Steam Railway 1918 Barclay 0-6-0T W38 Ajax (15457447668).jpg

No. 46447 LMS Ivatt Class 2 2-6-0
2-6-0
No. 46447 was first allocated the Crewe North, not far from her birthplace of Crewe Works, though moved to Workington within months to replace many elderly LNWR locomotives in the local area. She was moved to various sheds in North Wales and Derbyshire, right up until 1966, when she was sold for scrap to Dai Woodham. She was rescued in 1972 as the 20th locomotive to leave Barry Scrapyard and moved to the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre. No. 46447 later moved to the Isle of Wight in 2008. In 2012, an agreement was made between the East Somerset Railway and the Isle of Wight Steam Railway which saw No. 46447 move to Cranmore in exchange for LB&SCR E1 No. 32110 Burgundy. She arrived at Cranmore in November 2012 and returned to service following restoration in October 2014. She will now run on the ESR for 10 years. BR Lined Black with the Late Crest.

Juno Hunslet Austerity
0-6-0ST
Juno (works No. 3850) was built for work at Hunslet's Ironstone Quarry Railways, but was officially declared redundant only 10 years later and was purchased the following year by the Ivatt Trust and moved to the company's base at Quainton Road. Arriving in the May 2009, she left the Island on loan to the National Railway Museum in late October 2010. Green Isle of Wight Steam Railway 1958 Juno1.jpg

Diesel locomotives

Three diesel shunters are currently in the custody of the railway, all of which have run a majority of service trains, as opposed to the usual steam-hauled passenger services.

No. D2059 Edward British Rail Class 03 0-6-0DM After ending her career with British Railways in 1988, D2059 was selected to become a back-up engine, taking over from a steam service in the case of an emergency. She was initially selected due to having the appropriate brake equipment required by all engines on the railway in order to pull passenger trains, though has mostly worked on freight trains as very few failures have occurred over the years.

No. D2554 Nuclear Fred British Rail Class 05 0-6-0DM D2554 spent the first ten years of her career on the Western Region of British Railways, though she was transferred to the Southern Region and the Isle of Wight in 1966, as she was allocated to Ryde Depot for work on the island's newly instated electrification policy. She left the island network for the steam railway in 1984, though has only worked demonstration freights and service trains, as she is not fitted with air brakes. Nuclear Fred has not run since 2005, but in early 2011 work started to see what needed doing to return it to service. The fuel pump was known to be faulty so was sent away for reconditioning. The locomotive was started for the first time in October 2011 and work continues.

Undergoing overhaul, restoration or repairs

Multiple Units

Undergoing overhaul, restoration or repairs

The Ryde Pier Petrol Tram was built in 1927 by Drewry. It was withdrawn in 1969 when the tramway closed. It is undergoing restoration work, with a possibility of running the tram on the IOWSR in the future.

Stored or Static

The British Rail Class 483 483007, named "Jess Harper," was transferred from the Island Line to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway in 2021 for static display in the carriage shed at Havenstreet Station. The train was originally built in 1940 as London Underground 1938 Stock. A medium-term goal of the Steam Railway is to have 483007 operate on the line, either by having propulsion provided by one of the diesel shunters, or by being converted to battery power.

The Ryde Pier Electric Tram was built by Merres Pollard and Sons in 1911. It was withdrawn in 1927 and replaced by a petrol tram. In 1980, it was brought for a price of £2 by a private owner and was given to the Isle of Wight Council who cosmetic restored it. It went to the Cothy Bottom Heritage Center, Newport Quary and the Isle of Wight Bus Museum before being put away out of the public view. In 2018, ownership was transferred to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway (IOWSR).

Coaching stock

All of the railway's operational coaches have been built to a pre-grouping design. These have been restored by the skilled Havenstreet staff and are the envy of many Southern Region preserved railways.

IWR coaches

The stock collection includes a small set of original Isle of Wight Railway passenger stock.
